I'm so sorry if I miss any tags from my lovely friends in the #WritingCommunity here, but I'm trying to concentrate on editing my novel!
I really need to knuckle down, so I'll be here less for a little while... I hope 🤣

I finished an actual, physical book last night for the first time in months. It was Murder at Gulls Nest by Jess Kidd, a quirky, funny-sad mystery. Deciding what to try next to keep busting the slump.

Everyone wants a happy ending,
but what of the beginning?
The middle?
I enter this love in medias res,
but the #lifeless waiting is a true fairy-tale.
What good is good things if they always must end?
